Tower Street Food Hall is set to become Ipswich's latest foodie hotspot. It will feature seven independent vendors serving diverse cuisines, from pan-Asian to traditional London fare.
Why it matters: The venue brings together local and regional food businesses in the heart of Ipswich, transforming the former Yates bar into a modern dining destination following a £2m investment.
The details: The venue will open its doors at 11:00 on Saturday, February 15.
Confirmed vendors include:
Big Bro Bao: Pan-Asian cuisine featuring fluffy bao buns to bold, savoury bites
London Calling: Traditional fare including jellied eels, pie and mash, and salt beef bagels
Dad & Daughter's Pizza: Neapolitan pizzas cooked in a wood-fired oven
Slap and Pickle: Burgers made with 40-day dry-aged Swaledale beef, plus vegan options
Titu's Kitchen: Indian cuisine, including their "legendary Dum Biryani"
The Bucket List: Loaded fries and their signature "Chisagne" – a lasagne meets cheesy chip creation
The bigger picture: The three-storey venue will feature:
Ground floor: All food vendors, a small bar area, dessert and coffee counter, plus a children's play area
First floor: A larger bar with extensive seating
Second floor: A banquet hall available for hire
The bottom line: After months of anticipation since its September announcement, the eagerly awaited food hall will open its doors next week, bringing a new dining concept to Ipswich town centre.
